People need to get a life, if you hate Joe Paterno stop watching videos about the man just so you can leave comments cursing the good name of great man after he's gone. Joe loved kids, devoted his life to helping kids and making sure they got an education and became productive human beings. One of his assisstants who he trusted abused his trust. If you are to narrow minded to see that don't be watching videos about Joe.
So well said. You are wise beyond your years. I can only hope that others will feel as you do one day. Coach Paterno was a great man; even though he did not view himself as such. A great sadness that children to come will never be able to experience such a person as Coach Paterno.
Well done young man!, its up lifting to see young folks like you looking up to JoePa, he truly is an inspiration to us all, and will continue to be so for many, many years to come, Great job man, RIP JoePa, WE ARE!!!!!
@duffy31311 Thank you for showing your ignorance of this entire situation. It's sad how so many people like you get your facts from poorly covered news stories and other idiots who write blogs on the Internet. I guess it's easier for people like you to blame a well known public figure instead of someone else behind the scenes even though they are the ones at fault. Watch the memorial for Joe that was held on PSU's campus if you think he is so ordinary. Your ignorance disgusts me...
This guy tried to be some ordinary Joe, but We saw him as something more. We found his "Grand Experiment" something rare for a football coach, and his honest and humble nature something rare for a human being. He treated the university as his family, donating his time and money to make it a better place. We made him the face of our university, and We looked to him as family as well. We now mourn the not-some-ordinary-Joe's parting. Rest in Peace JoePa. You've gone home...
joe was just ordinary. he put on a good smile and let kids get ass raped. several young men have to go through life traumatized. all because some jerkoff was too much of a pussy to say something for fear of ruining his kingdom.
I'm gonna find some faggot and ask him to ass rape your son. then I will turn to you and say "well my friend, we all make mistakes"
yeah, so sad. there arent enough ball less, scumbag pieces of shit in this world who are too scared to do the right thing for fear of losing their stature.
Jopa... the Man. the Legend. the Saint. too bad that Sandusky tarnished the Jopa and Penn State brand ... hundreds will remember him as the super Football NCAA couch, but millions will remember him as the child-rapist enablin' hush man who was trying to protect school image and money at the expense of little boys.
This is such an incredible tribute!!!! you should be commended for you willingness to state your belief... Joe would be proud! not tha it's about him.. but it is so well stated!!!!!
Excellent video! Joe would be touched and honored by it. As a member of the Nittany Nation I thank you for putting in the time to do it. I've watched his career flourish over the last 35 years and I bleed blue and white! The man wasn't perfect but then who of us are? RIP Coach, We Are....going to miss you!
This has to be one of the best poems I have ever heard. Yes, it is heartbreaking losing a hero and an icon such as him, but like you said, he's in a better place. RIP Joe Pa. YOU ARE... PENN STATE!!
